metal detector needed in glos

Minty has lost a silver ring that has great sentimental value. She's 99% certain that she lost it outside the pikey wagon. I've looked but can't see the bloody thing. So if anyone local has access to a metal detector. Can I Borrow it for an hr or so..

Otherwise I'll be down on me hands and knees doing a forensics style search of the whole bloody site.

Oh dear, not good, hope you find it

That alright, silver is not magnetic ...

If you get stuck for the metal detector, buy one from Argos / Cash converters, then take it back and tell 'em it's ****e !!

Already come to that conclusion. They do a nice one for £1900

Rather dishonest, and a driving factor in increased consumer prices is it not

do you not remember telling someone on here how to get a damaged motor on the cheap.just the same.

I belive we MIGHT have one lurking in the basement, the father in law bought one to try and find hidden safes containing family jewels & heirlooms that the great great grandmother hid then died before telling anyone where they were... never found them

I'll go ask him and see if hes still got it! Im not too far away, down the road a bit in Taunton, if hes still got it youre more than welcome to come and borrow it, afraid I cant deliver it as Im working all the bloody time but Im sure the cost of fuel getting here & back would be cheaper than buying one!

Or failing that, dont places like Machine Mart or other generic tool hire places have metal detectors?

HSS Hire - Metal Detector Hire and Rent

might be of some use.

Bought a beginners metal detector today from Maplins for £30

Done a bit of searchin with it but no luck :Cry:

Thanks Tiercel, may take you up on the offer if its better than the cheapy one we just bought.

just a thought, but there might be a local enthusiasts club, you could offer a token reward for the finder.

BUT could also be risky if they find it and don't say, or come back when you're not there.
